The Opening Experiences Trilogy
Mapping the fractures. Weaving the pathways. Walking toward collective liberation.
As a student of life and sociologist, I approach the world not as a fixed set of systems to be analyzed, but as a living, breathing organism—one shaped by history, trauma, culture, and the deep longing for connection. My work is rooted in the study of human relationships: how they break, how they heal, and how they evolve into new forms of belonging.
Through three interconnected books, I offer a sociological lens that describes how we might seed a new timeline for humankind to heal and return to the heart.
Book 1: The Fracture
The tear in the fabric—and the threads that remain.
The Fracture explores the wounds of disconnection that shape our modern world. Drawing from anthropology, sociology, psychology, and lived experience, this book maps the deep cultural and collective traumas that have torn us from each other, from the Earth, and from ourselves. Rather than offering simple solutions, The Fracture invites the reader into a deeper understanding of how we got here—and an inquiry into what could help us heal.
For us to create a new timeline of collective healing, we must return to the natural rhythms of the Earth and to our instinctual need for tribe—rekindling the bonds that make us whole.
Book 2: Opening Experiences
Designing containers for collective healing, insight, emergence, and return to tribe.
Where The Fracture illuminates the need for the return to tribe, Opening Experiences offers a map of how to begin again—together. It is a guide for designing intentional, communal containers that create the conditions for personal and collective transformation. Drawing from ritual studies, group psychology, and embodied education, this book presents a framework for those who facilitate retreats, workshops, ceremonies, and community gatherings.
Whether you are a healer, ecovillage co-founder, or spaceholder, this book is a offers a framework for how to ignite the emergence of the desire to weave ourselves back into tribal living.
Book 3: Living Consensus
Reimagining how we decide, together.
The final volume, Living Consensus, is a sociological response to one of the most urgent questions of our time: How do we make decisions in a way that feels alive and aligned in our bodies—honoring both the individual and the collective? This book outlines a framework for creating governance models for intentional communities, organizations, and movements that want to root their decisions in consent, shared leadership, and the new timeline of trust.
Grounded in the study of cooperative cultures and consensus theory, Living Consensus offers practical tools, meeting structures, and agreements that empower groups to navigate complexity without falling into domination or dysfunction.
This is not just a book about process—it’s a vision for how people can truly live together.
A Living Body of Work
Together, these three books form the spine of my gift: a body of work devoted to understanding the systems that shape us, and imagining new ones that liberate. I write not from the outside looking in, but as a co-experimenter in tribal living—walking with others toward a future in which we return to nature.
If you’re working to heal, to build, or to guide others—you are not alone in this work.

Waves of my Woman
A guide for people who love women—inviting you to attune to the rhythms of the feminine, nurture intimacy, and embody love with awareness.
Waves of my Woman is a book for people who love women and want to truly understand the women they love—so as to stand beside them in full presence, reverence, and compassion.
Rooted in biology, intimacy psychology, spiritual insight, and lived relationship practice, this book explores the four inner seasons of a woman’s monthly hormonal cycle—the Menstrual, Follicular, Ovulation, and Luteal seasons—and how each one calls forth a different kind of love, attention, and support.
A Compass, Not a Manual
This book is a compass for standing beside her with heart, humility, and strength.
You’ll learn how to:
- Recognize and respond to the shifting emotional, physical, and energetic states she moves through each month.
- Hold space for her intensity without collapsing, fixing, or defending.
- Offer support that listens, guidance that adapts, and love that liberates.
- Cultivate safety and erotic depth through presence and attunement.
Through each season, you are invited to become a more conscious partner—by meeting her as she is, and growing yourself in the process.
For the Partner Becoming
Waves of my Woman is more than a relationship guide.
It is a rite of passage for the heart of the lover—an invitation to become the kind of partner who makes the world safer for feminine wisdom to rise.
Whether you’re in a committed partnership, preparing for love, or healing after heartbreak, this book offers reflections to support you in becoming more rooted, attuned, and liberated.
